Review: Fiddlerman Soloist Violin

Here is my review of the Fiddlerman Soloist violin. I searched for a good while and tried many violins before I spent the money for this beauty. Spoiler; I LOVE it. I'm not a professional violinist (yet 🤞🏻😁) and have only actively been practicing for around six months. (Soon to resume regular, dedicated practice as of 2/13/18.)
Below are the links to all the things I got from the fiddlershop:
Soloist Violin Outfit: fiddlershop.com/fiddlerman-so...
Impressionist Chin Rest: fiddlershop.com/the-impressio...
Bon Musica Shoulder Rest: fiddlershop.com/bon-musica-vi...
Fiddlerman Carbon Fiber Bow: fiddlershop.com/fiddlerman-s-...
Holstein Premium Rosin: fiddlershop.com/holstein-prem...
Snark Chromatic Tuner: fiddlershop.com/snark-chromat...
Zyex Strings: fiddlershop.com/d-addario-zye...
(Very rich and warm sounding strings with plenty of volume.)
I didn't show this, but I got it also and love it as well:

    Thanks for the review! On my budget, I will probably only be able to afford an OB1. But that's better than what I have now, which is nothing...😂😂😂

    Well, if I was you, I wouldn't spend so much for a violin if I'm a beginner, you maybe want to quit, who knows. And If I was you again, I would talk to a violinist to help me finding a good violin

    In total, how much was it all? Also it looks like you purchased the Fiddlerman Master Violin since the back looks like a one piece back rather than a two piece back.

    You have a better violin than I have now, and I'm in my 3rd year. Made a good choice! I might buy this one too :-) Thanks for the review! And oh yeah....curve that pinky 😊

    The rest when it came with the violin but I might be wrong because I'm looking at the master and it's the same rest so I don't know but you definitely made the right choice by getting to bows I actually did the same thing and it is just going to make it easier especially if you had a mishap and you have to sit there and get the bow restrung because you have already have a backup bow The Soloist is very nice me as a beginner I don't think I need to be up in that range yet but the master from beginner to intermediate that will last me 10 years or more because I'm not going to be out playing for people strictly doing it so I can enjoy the music I love to hear and play cheers

    Thank you for this review. Trying to find out a lot on fiddlershop Violins they seem very well, thinking of buying the artist but not so sure 500 dollars is a good range, anyway thank you for this review and you should upload some more violin videos!

    i know no bow hold is wrong but i recomend you try curving your pinkey , it should give more balance and really help you

    Great video :D is it me or does the violin look way more red on the website? i've seen a few review videos and the instruments has a different colour in every one. And they only make the soloist with a 2 piece back now i believe, so youre kinda lucky :D I know it doesnt make a difference sound wise but it looks more pretty i think
